Analysis of Climate Change Effects on Precipitation and Temperature Trends in Spain by Blanca Arellano, Qianhui Zheng, Josep Roca

“…The main objectives were as follows: (1) to analyze the temporal evolution of temperature from 1971 to the present, to quantify the warming process experienced in the case study and to evaluate the increase in extreme heat events (heatwaves); (2) to study the evolution of the precipitation regime to determine whether there is a statistically representative trend towards a drier climate and an increase in extreme precipitation; (3) to investigate the interaction between annual precipitation and the continuous increase in temperature; and (4) to estimate the future climate scenario for mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands towards 2050, analyzing the trends in land aridity and predicting a possible change from a Mediterranean climate to a warm steppe climate, according to the Köppen classification. …”

Diagnosis of planktonic trophic network dynamics with sharp qualitative changes by Gaucherel, Cedric, Fayolle, Stolian, Savelli, Raphael, Philippine, Olivier, Pommereau, Franck, Dupuy, Christine

“…Such ecological networks have many direct and indirect connections between species, and these connections are not static but often vary over time. These topological changes, as opposed to a dynamic on a static (frozen) network, can be triggered by natural forcings (e.g., seasons) and/or by human influences (e.g., nutrient or pollution inputs). …”

Benefits of realist evaluation for rapidly changing health service delivery by Paula Kersten, Margaret Cupples, Rachel Thomas, Fiona Cramp, Nicola E Walsh, Justin Jagosh, Hannah Stott, Serena Halls, Cathy Liddiard, Dave Foster

“…Reflecting on a realist evaluation of first-contact physiotherapy in primary care (the FRONTIER Study), five important considerations are described for improving the quality of realist evaluation outputs when studying rapidly changing health service delivery. These are: (1) ensuring that initial programme theories are developed through creative thinking sessions, empirical and non-empirical literature, and stakeholder consultation; (2) testing the causal impact of formal and informal (eg, emergent) components of service delivery models; (3) contrasting initial programme theories with rival theory statements; (4) envisioning broad system impacts beyond the immediate implementation setting; and (5) incorporating rapidly evolving service developments and context changes into the theory testing process in real-time (eg, Additional Role Reimbursement Scheme, COVID-19). …”
